I was *really bored* yesterday, so I decided to just go ahead

and look up Amazon reviews for the Little House books!

Specifically, commentary to negative reviews. No, I'm not sure why I do this to myself either.

Now, typically when mocking Amazon reviews I add my own snarky commentary, but I'm not sure I'll bother this time. Many of these comments, I'm afraid, just kinda speak for themselves.

(Still not sure what I'm going to do with my boxed set of the LH books. Reading them to the nieces is out. Giving the books to them to read sans adult input is definitely out. And I'm not tossing them either. They were a special Christmas present. So... yeah, I don't know.)

So, on to the... uh, the fun!

And that is pretty much it for "replies to negative comments". There's a handful of them for all nine or so books. (And you may not realize it, but these books have already been slightly edited.)

Well, that's depressing. Really, it is.

On that note, we're halfway through The Penderwicks. Maybe we'll do Owlboy next.
